1. Change 0.015 to a fraction.

• A. 3/200
• B. 3/2000
• C. 15/1000
• D. 3/100

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.015 to a fraction, we can rewrite it as 15/1000. Simplifying this fraction, we get 3/200. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (3/2000) is incorrect as the decimal 0.015 is equivalent to 15/1000, not 15/2000. Choice C (15/1000) is the initial form of 0.015 as a fraction, but it can be further simplified to 3/200. Choice D (3/100) is incorrect as it does not represent the decimal 0.015.

2. How many ounces are in 1.5 quarts?

• A. 32 ounces
• B. 16 ounces
• C. 48 ounces
• D. 64 ounces

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert quarts to ounces, you multiply the number of quarts by the conversion factor of 32 (since there are 32 ounces in a quart). Therefore, 1.5 quarts is equal to 1.5 x 32 = 48 ounces. The correct answer is 48 ounces. Choice A (32 ounces) is incorrect as it represents the amount of ounces in 1 quart, not 1.5 quarts. Choice B (16 ounces) is incorrect as it is half the amount of ounces in 1 quart. Choice D (64 ounces) is incorrect as it represents the amount of ounces in 2 quarts, not 1.5 quarts.

3. Multiply 4/9 x 1 & 4/5 x 2/5.

• A. 15
• B. 7/16
• C. 8/25
• D. 19

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To multiply fractions, you multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. Calculating 4/9 x 1 & 4/5 x 2/5 gives you (4 x 1) / (9 x 1) & (4 x 2) / (5 x 5) = 4/9 & 8/25. Therefore, the correct answer is 8/25. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not result from the correct multiplication of the fractions provided.

4. Subtract 32 divided by 8\9.

• A. 36
• B. 32
• C. 40
• D. 44

Correct answer: A

Rationale: 32 ÷ (8\9) is the same as 32 × (9\8) = 36.

5. How many feet are in 6 meters?

• A. 1.83 feet
• B. 18.48 feet
• C. 18.8 feet
• D. 19.68 feet

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert meters to feet, you can use the conversion factor: 1 meter = 3.28084 feet. Therefore, for 6 meters: 6 × 3.28084 = 19.684 feet. Rounding to two decimal places, the answer is 19.68 feet. Choice D, 19.68 feet, is the correct conversion. Choice A, 1.83 feet, is incorrect as it seems to be a miscalculation. Choice B, 18.48 feet, is incorrect as it doesn't match the correct conversion. Choice C, 18.8 feet, is also incorrect as it is not the accurate conversion from 6 meters to feet.
